The Feature & Follow is a creative meme that allows
bloggers to get to know each other, and gain more followers! It is hosted by TWO
hosts, Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.
If you would like, it would be great if
you followed me via Email, GFC, or Linky (all on the right). Let me know in the
comments if you did, leave a link to your blog, and I will comment and follow
back! I always do, I promise! Thank you so much!
Q: Confess your blogger sins! Is there anything as a newbie blogger that you've done, that as you gained more experience you were like -- oops?
Hmm, well, I have only been blogging for two months, so I AM a newbie blogger! I really don't know what to say for this one. I wish I could have more followers, as a newbie blogger? But I think I'm doing pretty well. Right? Yes. I think so.
So, for you more experienced bloggers, drop me a line! I would love to hear what you have to say, because it would really help me out, as a new blogger. Thank you!
Don't worry about followers! They will come! I feel like I don't have near as many followers as other bloggers and I'm 10 months old...I feel so old.

ReplyDeleteYour blog name made me laugh as on amazon, I labeled myself as a book devourer a few years ago! lol
LOLO! My sister came up with the name :D
DeleteI couldn't think of any sins myself and I've been at it for 4 years! Blogging is just something fun for me so I don't think I really have any regrets or mistakes.

Have a GREAT weekend!
Old Follower :)
NICE! 4 years is quite the accomplishment! keep up the fabulous work! :)
DeleteI totally understand about followers! One thing, I have learned is let them come to you. Build that audience instead of forcing them. A lot of blogs with big numbers got them by giveaways, etc and there's not much interaction. As a new blogger myself I try to comment on other blogs. If someone visits my blog for the first time and they leave a link, then I happily go and see what their latest post is or if they follow, I'll follow back.

In 2 months time nearly 400 GFC followers is really good, I think. I just hit 500 this week and have been blogging for 4 months. For me, it's been the blog hops and meme's that have significantly aided in followers. That, and commenting on others blogs too. I have found people in the book blogging world respond really well to personalized commenting versus generic copy and paste commenting.

Holly @ Words Fueled by Love
RIGHT! I have been commenting to get so many followers - no ajor giveaways. I think personalized comments are much better nd more meaningful. Thank you for your kind thoughts!

Thank you! I think you just need to market a little - you will totally get there! :D
DeleteUh, yeah, I'd say you're doing great! You know from visiting my blog that I'm only half as old as you :) so I can't offer any words of wisdom. And you seem to be doing just fine without needing advice! I should probably ask you for advice, Grandma. :)
